A Child of Mine

by Edgar Guest

 

"I'll lend you for a while a child of mine," He said.

"For you to love the while she lives and 

mourn for when she's dead.

It may be six or seven years, 

or twenty-two or three,

But will you, till I call her back,

take care of her for me?

She'll bring her charms to gladden you,

and should her stay be brief,

You'll have her lovely memories

as solace for your grief. 

I cannot promise she will stay;

since all from earth return,

But there are lessons taught down there

I want this child to learn.

I've looked the wide world over in 

My search for teachers true

And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes

I have selected you.

Now will you give her all your love, 

not think the labor vain,

Nor hate Me when I come to call

to take her back again?" 

I fancied that I heard them say,

"Dear Lord, Thy will be done!

For all the joy Thy child shall bring, 

the risk of grief we run.

We'll shelter her with tenderness, 

we'll love her while we may,

And for the happiness we've known, 

forever grateful stay;

But should the angels call for her 

much sooner than we've planned,

We'll brave the bitter grief that comes

and try to understand."
